sysarch —
architecture-dependent system call
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
#include
<machine/sysarch.h>
int
sysarch(int
number, void
*args);
sysarch()
performs the architecture-dependent function specified by
number with the arguments specified by the
args pointer. args is a pointer
to a structure defining the actual arguments of the function. Symbolic
constants and argument structures for the architecture-dependent functions
can be found in the header file
⟨machine/sysarch.h⟩.
The
sysarch()
system call should never be called directly by user programs. Instead, they
should access its functions using the architecture-dependent library.
See the manual pages for specific architecture-dependent function calls for information about their return values.
The sysarch() function call appeared in
NetBSD 1.0.
